The latest episode of the IEA’s Everything Energy podcast examines how the plunge in shipping through the Strait of Hormuz – one of the world’s most critical energy chokepoints – is rippling through global oil markets.
Now available on Apple Podcasts and Spotify, the episode features insights from senior oil market analysts Rebecca Schulz and David Martin. They discuss the latest data, drawing from the IEA’s April Oil Market Report, and explore the real-world consequences for oil-consuming countries and industries – as well as how the situation has reshaped the IEA’s forecasts for supply and demand in the months ahead.
